The top three in East Asia are China, Japan and South Korea. Not only economically, but also in terms of sports competition. Japan was originally in the lead, but was later surpassed by China. Japan and South Korea faithfully played the role of chasers, aiming to defeat the Chinese team.
Rong. Especially in the comprehensive arena of the Asian Games, the Chinese team is their ultimate goal.
However, this is not the case in football. Japan dominates South Korea, South Korea destroys China, and China defeats Japan. It is unclear whether it is due to technical and tactical reasons, psychological reasons or technical reasons. In short, this phenomenon almost dominates football around the new century.
East Asian football.
Since the football match occupies a large area, takes a long time, and is a group event, it can only determine the ownership of one gold medal. Therefore, whether it is the Asian Games or the Olympic Games, the football match starts first, thus leaving space for the track and field events. Therefore,
Although the Busan Asian Games will only hold its opening ceremony on September 29, the football group stage will be held two days in advance.
Although Wang Ai really wanted to experience the feeling of participating in the opening ceremony, unfortunately, very few football players could participate. Even if Wang Ai is now vaguely regarded as the number one active athlete in the country, he still cannot grab the position of flag bearer.
The habit of the Chinese team is that basketball players hold the flag. It’s not that basketball is important, but that they are big and look majestic.
On the evening of September 22, Wang Ai finally arrived at the Chinese team station in Seoul after a long journey.
Very low-key... afraid of being beaten to death!
10:0 Ah, in the Confucian world, this is simply an evil deed! In this world surrounded by Smectas, especially when Wang Ai is still injured, he can only languish.
The report was even hidden from the eyes of reporters and Korean fans. For this reason, the Chinese Embassy in South Korea specially sent a car to pick up Wang Ai from the airport.
He scored eight goals in one game, and he did it in a fierce confrontation for most of the time. How could he not be injured at all? After the game, Wang Ai worked hard to complete the blindfold performance. Schubert specially gave
Wang Ai checked and found that Wang Ai even fell asleep during the massage. Even his bonus distribution was completed with the help of Liu Chunming and Director Liu.
There were no serious injuries, but there were too many scrapes, bruises, and bruises. Even Wang Ai’s shin guards were kicked to pieces. So after reporting to the Olympic team, he almost didn’t participate in any activities.
After staying up in the gym for half an hour, I went back to my room to sleep.
It wasn't until the next day that I officially met up with my Olympic teammates. Of course, there were some surprising congratulations.
Captain Dewey came over and asked with concern: "Xiao Wang, are you feeling well?"
"Ah?" Wang Ai said in surprise: "It's nothing."
Dewey shook his head: "I watched it on TV. You were violated too much. If you weren't hard enough and flexible enough, it would be hard to say. Besides."
When Dewey said this, he smiled sheepishly: "Last night, Director Shang Shen specifically asked Schubert about your physical condition. Schubert told us everything."
As soon as he heard the truth, he was shaken out. Wang Ai stopped pretending, and suddenly Ge You was paralyzed: "Brother Du, I'm so tired. I'm still sore all over. I guess I won't be able to recover in three to five days."
.”
Dewey nodded: "Don't worry, there are no strong players in the group stage, so you can take a good rest. By the way, you will also train these days. After the competition, if you don't move at all, your recovery will be slow."
Although Wang Ai is very aware of this common sense, Dewey rarely speaks so much, and the arrogant Dewey rarely shows concern for others, so Wang Ai seriously agreed to the captain's instructions. In the National Olympics, Even though Wang Ai is now the most famous star, from a competitive perspective, he can still only be a substitute.
In the morning, the National Olympics were training at the station. Wang Ai followed him, but he didn't get up much. He almost sat on the sidelines and watched his teammates train while chatting with others. The bruise on his leg still hurt a little, Schubert said. His leg bones are very hard, so there's nothing wrong with him, but he still needs to take precautions. Wang Ai is good at what he does, and he'll be good for the day anyway.
After arranging team training, Shen Xiangfu finally had time to chat with Wang Ai.
"Have a good rest these days, and you will compete again on October 8th and the quarter-finals."
Wang Ai nodded immediately: "We have six groups, how do we get the quota for the top eight?"
"The first place in the six groups, plus the second place in the two groups with the most points. The points are also based on the goal difference."
"What about the goal difference?"
"Then it depends on who scores more goals. If it doesn't work, we can still play in the play-offs. In short, that's not what we care about." Old Shen waved his hand domineeringly: "We are here for the championship... If we can't win the championship, at least I also need to get a card back. Besides, there is you, the winner of the Golden Ball, Golden Boot, and championship in two consecutive Asian Junior Championships."
"Hehe." Wang Ai smiled: "Isn't this so that my players will have confidence in the Korean team in the future? It is also to destroy the other party's confidence in us, otherwise I wouldn't be so cruel."
"Oh, let me tell you." Shen Xiangfu suddenly realized, and suddenly his expression changed: "I mean, Xiao Wang, you don't want to do this at the Asian Games, do you?"
Wang Ai chuckled: "I'm not in charge of the National Olympics either."
Shen Xiangfu smiled and pointed at Wang Ai: "You are not the master of the country, either!"
A few days later, the men's football group stage of the Busan Asian Games began. The Chinese team's first opponent was Turkmenistan. As a result, the Chinese National Olympic team defeated the opponent 6:0. After a full month of training and recovery in Germany, the National Olympic team He exuded strong fighting power and desire to win.
Similarly, a few days later, the Chinese team played against its second group stage opponent, Bangladesh. The Chinese Olympic team continued their efforts and defeated their opponent 5:0. And on October 3, the Chinese team once again defeated the final opponent of the group stage 4:0. One opponent, India, won all three games without conceding a goal. Instead, it gained a 15-goal difference and qualified first in the group.
At almost the same time, the top eight teams of this Asian Games football match have been decided, namely the South Korean team in the first group, the Thai team in the second group, the Chinese team in the third group, and the Japanese team in the fourth group. , the Iranian team in the fifth group and the Kuwait team in the sixth group. In addition, the Bahrain team and the North Korean team in the same group as Japan ranked second in the group with two wins and one loss, 5 and 4 goal differences respectively, and entered the quarterfinals. .
The organizing committee drew lots, and China and Japan, who topped the third and fourth groups, were the top eight opponents. The rest were Iran and Kuwait in the fifth and sixth groups, South Korea in the first group and Bahrain, the second in the fourth group. Thailand in the second group vs. North Korea in the sixth group.
In addition to being beneficial to the two countries on the Korean Peninsula, this grouping situation is not very "friendly" to several other strong teams. A war between China and Japan is imminent.
Although the Chinese National Olympic Games had a small victory in the unexpected warm-up match, the National Olympic team did not dare to underestimate the opponent. Even though this National Olympic team frequently defeated some strong teams in the world, after all, Japan only came in the warm-up match. Half of the main force.
For this reason, Lao Shen went to Wang Ai to ask about his physical condition.
Wang Ai waved his hand carelessly: "Coach Shen, we made an internal decision before the national junior finals. To sum it up, we can say 'support them'. So I also have the same attitude towards Japan, and we will play in the finals!"
